Dentistry For Kids
WHY DOES YOUR CHILD NEED CHILDREN'S DENTISTRY?
It's important to bring your child to see the dentist once every six months for a cleaning and check-up. A professional cleaning helps remove any build-up that might remain, even after brushing and flossing at home. In addition, having a dentist examine your child’s teeth every six months, helps with early detection of cavities or other problems that might get worse if left untreated.
WHAT DOES CHILDREN'S DENTISTRY INVOLVE?
At TriState Family Dental Centers, we provide a range of important procedures that are geared toward improving and maintaining the health of your child's smile. Your child will establish themselves in our office with an exam and cleaning. From there, we can create a personalized treatment plan specific to them if additional work is needed. Some of the more common procedures we offer for children include:
- Dental exams
- Professional cleanings
- Fluoride treatment
- Sealants
- Fillings
- Simple Extractions
- Bonding
WHAT CAN YOUR CHILD EXPECT DURING A TYPICAL CHILDREN'S DENTISTRY APPOINTMENT?
Your child's first appointment with us involves a comprehensive examination performed by one of our doctors, a professional dental cleaning, and x-rays when indicated. Both the exam and cleaning help us check for signs of cavities and other problems in their mouth. If additional treatment is needed, we can schedule an appointment for your child to come back in and have the work done. Our goal is to provide your family with a comfortable, professional dental office that you can trust. We work with children of all ages and take a kid-friendly approach to providing them the care that they need.
